Ohio housing news good

The Ohio Association of Realtors reports that the number of single-family homes and condominiums put under agreement in November rose for the 19th consecutive month compared to results from the prior year.

"The Ohio housing marketplace is continuing its remarkable turnaround from the challenges presented by the economic downturn of a few years ago," said Robert U. Miller, president of the association.

"The fact that the number of homes put under contract in November increased for the 19th straight month is a clear indication hat we're making progress in establishing a solid foundation for a stable, sustainable and growing housing market throughout the Buckeye State."

Ohio's October pending home sales index of 154.9, rose 14 percent from the November 2011 index score of 135.9.
